Description

The world's #1 productivity killer, reinvented for the app store generation. Try it now or get back to work! A CLASSIC PUZZLE IN A WHOLE NEW SHAPE!

"looks awesome, even to a person who's already played Minesweeper for hundreds of hours. That’s precisely the same old good game, but with the HD graphics and spherical (aka planet-like) gameplay field. Find mines, flag them, take a guess and die horribly. Fun, fun time."--AppSale Review

"A brilliant take on an old classic... A brilliant challenge, but easy to get into if you’re waiting for the train or just have some minutes to kill....the game provides a challenge, and is very entertaining. It’s also great to see such a classic game being taken to new levels!"-- Tom Rippon, BnBGaming's iOS Hot List

Planet Minesweeper presents the classic strategy game in a whole new way! Puzzle your way across an entire planet on the unique SPHERICAL GAME BOARD!

Love it

I could not believe how big some of the maps are. This game very fun to play. The sphere is more natural to play on. I hate to write anything bad about such a cool game, but I must point out a minor glitch that does not effect my game play but is noticeable. The map will suddenly spin to a random place as I am about to uncover a space. Only happens 1 out of 50 times. This game is a definite buy for a true minesweeper fan.

Best Minesweeper app in the app store, but still needs work.

Pros:*Great Graphics and art design.*Unique twist on a classic, unlike many of the cheap minesweeper knock-offs out there.

Cons:*Despite the work the developer has put in towards resolving it, the controls can be finicky at times and result in a lot of accidental losses.*The information text and icons in-game are heavily anti-aliased and low-res, looking pretty bad against the otherwise outstanding graphics.*The gloss on the buttons in the main menu makes them look somewhat cheap and plasticy looking.*No sound effects, and not a whole lot of feedback either, making both winning and especially losing feel anti-climactic.*No pause button?

...also, an option to disable the tap-and-hold menu would be nice, as it just gets in the way for me.

Great play but...

I really enjoy this Mae and the play is great but I end up blowing myself far too many times due to a double tap being misinterpreted as a drag. Then the second tap ( which should be a double tap if you make garage out of it) blows up some random space. Game over. Drive me nuts and makes me want to stop playing, but I can't ...
